1tablespoonparsley

1 ½tablespoon(1.5tablespoon)tahini

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius / 400 degrees Fahrenheit. You want the skins to char slightly to give even more of a smoky flavor to this hummus so use a hotter oven than usual for roasting.
Prepare the bell peppers by slicing them into large chunks and removing the seeds, then place them on a lined baking tray and drizzle liberally with oil.
Roast your bell peppers in the oven for 30 minutes or until the skins look silky and lightly charred on the edges. Give the tray a shake halfway through roasting.
Drain the chickpeas, reserving the water.
Blend the ingredients. Place the chickpeas, tahini, peppers, lemon juice, olive oil, and paprika into a food processor and blend until smooth. If the hummus needs to be thinned out slightly, use a splash of the reserved chickpea water. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve the hummus without garlic with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and chopped fresh parsley.
